Jan 23rd, 2016Delicious stuff. Mostly Mando, blended with Monastrell and Garnacha Tintorera. Matured in large Tinaja Amphora, so no oak.

Oct 8th, 2014A very good wine with special characteristics due to its aging process (six months in clay amphorae instead of oak.) Red fruit, clay, fresh herbs, and flint, flint, flint. Decanting a must - necessary to bring out the tobacco and menthol notes. Drinks well above its price point.
